Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The room was in good condition and the check in process was very easy. There was a winter storm and we were left without heat and power for 8 hours in February. The bed had warm blankets to keep us warm enough through the cold night and the staff was kind and took our call at midnight when the power went out and did their best to reassure us and kept us informed as they heard from electric company repair teams. The location is somewhat remote, but very accessible to the Kings Canyon National Park.
